The Bottom Line. ABCP transactions and how to run them most efficiently

Episode 8


In episode 8, our hosts discuss asset-backed commercial paper
(ABCP) programmes, also known as conduit programmes, with
industry experts and securitisation enthusiasts Guido Goldmann
from Bayerische Landesbank as well as Timo Menzel and Marc von
Scheliha from BearingPoint. In this episode, you will learn how
Bayerische Landesbank and BearingPoint cooperate on ABCP
transactions to make the process more efficient for originators.
We discuss the current state of the ABCP market, the advantages
of this funding source, and why these programmes are particularly
interesting for corporate and leasing companies. Further, we
address common reservations about ABCP, the complexity of the
data and IT infrastructure requirements for these transactions,
and how tools, techniques, automation and digital workflows can
significantly simplify transactions and increase efficiency. We
also dare taking a look at the future of securitisation, with
innovations such as AI and distributed ledger technology (DLT) –
will processes change for the better?
